A 1 day workshop equipping delegates with the legal framework surrounding TUPE as well as the practical elements to consider. In this workshop we look to enable a smooth running TUPE (as smooth as they ever can be).
By the end of the day, delegates will be able to:
- Describe the legal framework provided by TUPE set out the practical implications for employers and affected employees
- Identify the key milestones involved in a transfer of service to which TUPE applies
- Show an understanding of the requirements for informing and consulting
- Plan for the management of a project by identifying the key milestones, risks and stakeholders.
